Yea I’ve seen a lot of pub servers do this, even EU servers. They will make it look like 20-30 ping and after connecting it’s like 60 tops. It’s been this way for a year.

It’s a really bad server. I don’t know why it has the traffic it does. Idk if it’s a lack of moderation, seems pretty absent. UGC literally killed gflclan’s mge server, I was a admin for two years, I suspect aside from a focus on cheating, it was the heavy handed moderation on racial slurs / toxic behavior, etc. In the end I feel like people wanna shit talk and say what they want in mge, it’s always been like that, platforms with less accountability will always be preferred among this sorta playerbase. Personally since it’s a practice mod and it being completely outside of pugs, scrims and official matches under RGL/ETF2L, it should had pushed self priority mutes / and disabling chat box outside of commands for joining / leaving maps. I’m all for a healthy environment in official matches, but our community failed to push the idea of limiting exposure to majorly toxic interactions, you could argue newer players don’t have access to those commands, and that’s fair, but instead of providing that information we killed our player base with heavy handed bans.

It’s now a deathrun server, and I don’t expect that to last long.

Also I’ll see what’s up, made a typo and edited my post, it made a double post instead. Idk what’s up with that.

Never using needles, not starting now.

Starting tonight until this next Sunday, I’m taking demos from the pugs for a promo edit. I’m rendering and jpeg is gunna do the edit. If you got time stamps, please include it. I don’t mind digging thru demos but if you can make it easy on me I’d appreciate. Despite it being on jpeg’s YouTube I’ll also put up a 2k 60fps download for it.

Hope you guys come out and play, this format needs the love.

Edit: you can add me on steam or get me on discord @
Brock#1880 Can pretty much handle any file size via email if that’s easier for you, just let me know.

What do you think envisions growth? Do I need to mention invite players that came from pubs? 60 percent of causal players see comp on YouTube, they experience the scene via you or others pub stomping, dude your the example. Casual players have added me 9x out of 4 weeks and I have directed them to RGL. They wanna play, it’s the same thing for me back when I got the orange box and year later I saw comp footage, clips of the week. These people are new, but they are subjective to the same experiences as you and me.

Can’t really make it a title because it’s a self titled album. They make it that way like it’s a new experience, like a first take for the band. This be might the most accessible album for new listeners, it’s not bad at all, but frustrating for fans, it’s not fast, it’s not complex, the new album feels (at least for me) like a easy listener mix, it feels like a alternative to them focusing (and they have admitted this) on playing on / working from Theodore and Pridgen. Maybe it was Omar loosing his mom, I really can’t say.

This new album isn’t bad, I liked it, not nearly as much as anything as progressive as the first 4 albums, It’s unique, it’s got tracks for easy prog listening, idk if the band is going from a high to a low, I can understand that. It’s just frustrating. I went from guys like No Means No going majorly hard, fast as a devil getting off, with that in mind, and maybe it was more focused on Theodore, he wanted to play fast and Omar recognized that.

Does the community wanna play with thieves? We got so much shit to deal with, pedos, cheaters, wtf can of venue do you want man?

Despite claims, can you give us incentive for playing specific classes in each format? I mean you got a heavy platform in trading, why can’t someone play 1000 lobs as a medic in 6s and get some loot? Wanna step up a prize for time played? We got this entire award system, and all we get from them is a badge on our profile? Lobbies started across different formats, (lobbies completed) should be a cool prize. Offer better payouts for advance lobs, push separate stats. Take reference of faceit but remember how they abused that system.

Offer simulator payouts for advance lobbies, hell make monthly tourneys out of stats, give people a payout, let us grind.

@Thief

Bring back advance lobbies (esp in NA) and make it relevant. Don’t just drop that system and let folks make lobs under it for nostalgia.
